Quick Answers
When are wasps and yellow jackets worst?
Late summer. Nests are at their largest in August and September, and yellow jackets get more aggressive near food.
Should I remove a nest myself?
Ground nests and nests inside walls are risky to treat on your own. A sealed wall nest can push wasps into the house.
What about honey bees?
Many pest companies refer honey bee swarms to a local beekeeper who can move them alive. Ask before you book.
Does a wasp removal company need a license in Alaska?
Yes. Alaska licenses or certifies anyone who applies pesticides on someone else’s property for pay, through its state pesticide regulator, most often the department of agriculture. Ask for the license number before work starts.
